Casemiro Brazilian midfielder, after 9 years with Real Madrid announced he is joining “the biggest team in the world.”

“I spoke to my agent after the Champions League final as I had the feeling that I was coming to the end of my cycle here,” said Casemiro.

“It was the hardest decision of my life but I’m excited about what’s ahead of me. I want to face new challenges and know a different league, a different country, and a different culture.

“I’m going to the biggest team in the world, that can compete with the greatness of Real Madrid, although now it doesn’t.”
